Effect Settings
This MADRIX 5 Effect uses the following, individual controls:
▪Colors - Opens the Color Table to specify the colors. The default color is White.
Learn more »[Global] Colors And Intensity
▪Shapes - Opens the Shape Table to specify the shapes. The default color is Circle Filled.

▪BPM - Defines the speed. The default value is 600. Valid values range from 0 to 9999.

▪Path Count - Defines the number of concentric paths on which shapes circle around the center. The default value is 3. Valid values range from 1 to 20.
▪Path Bounds - Defines the inner and outer limits of where paths can run along on the virtual LED matrix. The default values are 10 and 90. Valid values range from 0 to 10000.
▪Offset - Defines a location deviation of shapes across different paths. The default value is 0. Valid values range from -10000 to 10000.
▪Shape Count - Defines the number of shapes [multiplied by the Patch Count]. The default value is 1. Valid values range from 1 to 50.
▪Size - Defines the minimum and maximum size of shapes. Outer shapes are large than inner shapes. The default values are 10 and 20. Valid values range from 0 to 1000.
▪Rotation - Defines the number of path on which shapes circle around the center. The default value is 0. Valid values range from -3600 to 3600.
▪Center - Defines the position of the center in X, Y, and Z [in %]. The default values are 50, 50, 50. Valid values range from -1000 to 1000.

|
Path Alignment - Lets shapes rotate along the path instead of the rotation against the horizon.
|

|
Motion - Activates movement across the different paths defined by the Path Count. The default setting is 0. Valid values range from -100 to 100.
|

|
Distribution - Allows you to choose a certain Distribution Mode for the specific parameter. Often, you can then define a minimum value and a maximum value.
Linear - A linear distribution is used to increase the size regularly.
Quadratic - The majority of objects will be smaller than the rest.
SQRT - Using a square root function the majority of objects will be larger.
Cubic - Uses a cubic distribution with mixed sizes.
|

|
Shape On Bounds - Locats shapes on each Patch Bound instead of placing them towards the Paths Bounds.
|

|
Offset Animation - Animates the shapes and rotates them additionally with the offset against each path.
|

|
Path Cross Width - Lets shapes move against each other on the different paths. The default setting is 0. Valid values range from 0 to 20.
|

|
Distribution - Allows you to choose a certain Distribution Mode for the specific parameter. Often, you can then define a minimum value and a maximum value.
Uniform - Each path has the same distribution.
Linear - A linear distribution is used to increase the parameter regularly starting from the inside.
Quadratic - The parameter is more prominent on the outer paths.
SQRT - Using a square root function the parameter is more prominent on the outer paths.
Cubic - Uses a cubic distribution with a mixed distribution.
Inverted Linear - A linear distribution is used to decrease the parameter regularly starting from the inside.
Triangle - The majority of objects will be on the middle paths.
Inverted Quadratic - The parameter is more prominent on the inner paths.
Inverted SQRT - Using a square root function the majority of objects will be on the inner paths.
Inverted Cubic - Uses a cubic distribution with a mixed distribution.
|

|
Rotation Animation - Animates the shapes and rotates them individually and permanently.
|

|
Rotation Cross Width - Lets shapes rotate against each other on the different paths. The default setting is 0. Valid values range from 0 to 20.
|

|
Look-At Type - Allows you to choose from which side you want to look at the effect. This is mainly relevant for 3D. The default setting is Front. Learn more »Using Directions
|

|
Speed - Is only available for specific shapes [Implode, Explode, Pulse]. Defines how fast the shapes implode, explode, or pulse. The default setting is 1. Valid values range from 0 to 10.
|

|
Delay - Is only available for specific shapes [Implode, Explode, Pulse]. Adds a delay to the shapes and lets them implode, explode, or pulse across the different paths. The default setting is 0. Valid values range from -100 to 100.
|

|
Delay 2 - Is only available for specific shapes [Implode, Explode, Pulse]. Adds a delay to the shapes and lets them implode, explode, or pulse along each path. The default setting is 0. Valid values range from -100 to 100.
|

|
Display Mode - Defines how the effect is shown. The default setting is Fit.
Clip - The maximum size of the effect is determined by the largest side of the virtual LED matrix.
Fit - The maximum size of the effect is determined by the smallest side of the virtual LED matrix.
Stretch - The effect is stretched to be fully shown on the virtual LED matrix.
|
Restoring The Default Settings

|
Restore Default Layer Settings - Restores the default settings of the Layer.
- All Layer Settings and Effect Settings will be restored to their default values.
- This does not include the MADRIX 5 Effect selection, the Effect Parameter Chaser [which will be paused], or the Layer Macro [which will be stopped].
